FXMap is a free interactive tool that visualizes reference exchange rates on a world map. You can click any country to see its currency, compare up to 3 currencies side-by-side, and explore purchasing power indexes like the Big Mac Index, Latte Index, and more. Rates are for informational purposes only and are not transaction quotes.

How often are exchange rates updated?

Reference exchange rates refresh approximately every hour from the European Central Bank (ECB) and other open data APIs. The data covers 161 fiat currencies, major cryptocurrencies, and precious metals. See /methodology for details on data sources, update cadence, and limitations.

What are purchasing power indexes?

Purchasing power indexes compare the real cost of everyday items across countries. FXMap tracks six indexes: Big Mac, Latte, Taxi Ride, Coca-Cola, Movie Ticket, and Gasoline. These show what your money actually buys in different countries, beyond just the exchange rate.

How many currencies does FXMap cover?

FXMap covers 161 fiat currencies from 180+ countries, plus major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and others. You can compare any currency against any other using reference rates and 30-day trend charts.

Can I compare currencies side by side?

Yes. Select a base currency, then use the comparison feature to add up to 3 currencies. You'll see reference exchange rates, 30-day sparkline trends, percentage changes (1-day, 7-day, 30-day), and purchasing power comparisons across all six indexes.

Money Transfer Reference Rates — Compare Mid-Market vs. Quoted

International money transfers are typically priced as a margin on top of the mid-market rate plus a fixed fee. The mid-market rate itself isn't a price you can transact at — it's the midpoint between buy and sell quotes on interbank markets.

fxmap.app aggregates mid-market reference rates from the European Central Bank (via Frankfurter), open.er-api.com, and other open data sources. Pages on this domain show those benchmark numbers so you have a neutral reference when you compare provider quotes.

We do not execute transfers, hold funds, or quote tradeable prices. When a partner CTA appears below, it is an affiliate link to a third-party transfer service — fxmap may earn a commission if you proceed.

Frequently asked questions

Are fxmap's rates the same as what a transfer service will quote me?: No. fxmap publishes mid-market reference rates aggregated from the ECB and open data providers. Transfer services add a margin (and usually a fee) on top of the mid-market rate, so the rate you are quoted will almost always differ. Use fxmap's number as a benchmark, not as a transaction price.
How recent are the rates shown on fxmap?: Fiat reference rates refresh approximately every hour from upstream sources. The ECB itself publishes daily reference rates around 16:00 CET on TARGET business days. The page-level 'Updated …' timestamp reflects the upstream publication time.
Does fxmap recommend a specific money-transfer provider?: No. We do not endorse any specific provider. When a partner CTA is shown on this page it is a paid affiliate link, clearly disclosed. Always compare the all-in cost (rate + fees) on the partner's site before sending money.
Is fxmap regulated as a money services business?: No. fxmap is an information service. We do not hold funds, execute transfers, or operate as a money services business. To send money you must use a regulated provider.
Where does the underlying rate data come from?: Daily mid-market rates come from open.er-api.com for broad coverage and the Frankfurter API (which mirrors ECB euro reference rates) for ECB-published pairs. Full sourcing details are documented on the methodology page.

Need a tradeable price?

fxmap.app does not execute transactions. To send, spend, or receive money in a foreign currency, use a regulated provider and verify the quoted rate at the moment you book.
